Is anyone . . I mean anyone more legalistic than Catholics?

LOL. I grew up between two families of strict Babdists. Didn't drink (ever), didn't dance (ever), solemnly insisted that anyone who said "heck" or "darn" was swearing and bound for hellfire.

You're telling me Catholics are "legalistic"?

Oddly enough, Catholics get it from both sides. We're simultaneously condemned for being "legalistic" and being "lax".

Perhaps, they're just right.

No, this type of imbalance is more indicative of straining at gnats and swallowing camels.
